Italics are thoughts
Bold are for lyrics and flashbacks
Darien paced the sacred room back and forth his mind a torrent of thoughts of what could be happening to his love. "She
could be in pain... or in pleasure... stop thinking that way... I'll kill Seiya for this... I'll rip his bones through his skin...
I'll mur-" His thoughts were cut short as he hears his name called, the call was a deep voice it sounded like. "Malachite?" As
he spoke the name four orbs of colors materialized and appeared were his 4 closest companions. Malachite steely crystal
blue eyes looked to his best friend and he knelt and bowed his head as did the others. "Darien we're sorry for not being here
earlier but we did not feel our beloved's anguish until a few moments ago."
He looked confused as he looked to the four generals as they stood before him. "Their beloved's? Who?" As if hearing his
thoughts Nephrite answered him. "The four goddesses who accompany the moon goddess... our mùirn beatha dàn's. This
may sound as a shock because they think their beloveds are others but they feel the pull. Their memories do not remember
us, they have been reincarnated too many times." His deep green eyes flickered in sadness as he thought of his chestnut
haired beauty her emerald eyes sparkled with love for him. A heavy sigh came from Zoisite as he cleared his throat and
looked to Darien. "I think it's time we show you some of the past not all of us remember so clearly." The four generals circled
Darien and closed their eyes. The symbol of Earth intertwined with their beloveds planet on their heads: Malachite with
Venus, Jadeite with Mars, Zoisite with Mars and Nephrite with Jupiter. They began to chant an incantation of the now long
dead Terran language.
When Darien opened his eyes again he was standing on the fields of the moon about a mile away from the Moon
Kingdom. He looked around and noticed that the generals were there with him as well but in armor he looked
down at himself and realized he was in his sacred armor. His armor from Earth which he always wore with pride in
and out of battle. He cleared his throat his mind spinning with thousands of questions. "Where are we? When are
we?" The men looked to each other and chuckled softly. Jadeite was the first to speak his voice sounded far
away for a moment as if remembering a perfect time. "This is the time of the moon when the kingdom was still
here, many centuries ago during the silver millenium." Darien felt his throat tighten he had only read of stories of
the Terrans and the Moon Kingdrom in faerie tales. His ears shot up as he heard a very familiar giggling and his
name being called as he spun around he gasped at what he saw.
"Endymi- I mean Darien! DARIEN!" Serena's high pitched giggle echoed across the beautiful meadow as she
ran toward her love. Her silver hair pulled up into the traditional style for the moon kingdom the light from the
sun making it shine even brighter. She launched into the arms of her beloved her shimmering grey eyes sparkling
with love as she hugged him tightly, she squealed as she felt herself being swung around and lips crashing onto
hers. As she was set down she felt her head spinning from the intensity of the kiss. "Darien... what has gotten
into you so sudden? You kiss as if you have not seen me in centuries... does something trouble you?" Her eyes
peered up at him with worry her fingers gently brushing his cheek. Darien had never felt any happier than right
now, he was looking at his love but a very similar form of her back when she lived on the moon. Her hair was
similar but her clothes were much different, she wore a white sping dress that was strapless and had pearls and
sequins along the top, the dress flowed down to her ankles. Although the dress was made for the outdoors it still
looked like a gown.
"No my love... everything is perfect. Can I not be happy to see the woman who has stolen my heart?" A grin
spreading across his smooth chisled face. Serena well back then called Serenity felt a blush creep over her face
as she hid her face in his chest. "Must you embarass me infront of your friends." Darien chuckled and tickled
her some and grinned even more as he heard her squeal and his friends laugh. "They are so used to you, you are
like a little sister to them... no worries... they are my brothers and will always protect you." She nodded softly
and smiled as she turned to them and greeted them all lovingly before adjusting her dress some and then
speaking. "Well if you four must know since I can see it in your eyes, the girls are all waiting for you at lunch in
the parlor." The generals looked shocked because they had completely forgotten, they nodded and mumbled
apologies as they headed back towards the kingdom blaming each other for forgetting.
Serena sighed as she rested against Darien and his hand slipped around her waist. "They are all so in love with
each other as we are... aren't they?" Darien nodded and kissed her forehead softly recieving a small smile from
her. "You must remember though we all used to bicker with one another before we became lovers... or have you
forgotten my moon goddess?" Serena bit her lower lip trying to hold back a laugh as she nodded remembering
her and her companions when they were younger being so foolish and childlike. "Can you blame us? We were so
much younger and it was much easier to hide our true desires back then." He nodded and began to walk with her
back towards the kingdom slowly. "It feels as if it was just yesterday." Serena nodded and they began to drift
back into memories of a few years before.
Moon Kingdom Past------------- (By the way I only changed Mina and Serena's name...because it goes with mythology and yeah...) (I put it in Bold Italic to say this is when they were younger and bold for past but older... meh you'll get it)
It had been four years earlier Serenity and her court had been notified that they would be training to become
sailor soldiers of the solar system and they would be bethrothed to their male partners. Serena groaned in
frustration as she paced back in forth in one of her traditional moon gowns in her bedroom. She yelped as she
was pelted in the head with a grape from her bed, her silver hair swished to look to the area it came from. She
was greeted by shimmering violet eyes which were now scrunched up and was laying back laughing with the
other girls on her bed. "Raye! Must you taunt me constantly! It's not fair!" She stomped her heeled foot in
frustration and then walked over to the bed and jumped onto it laying down propping her head up. "Why do we
have to BETHROTHED?" She gagged as she accentuated the word as if it was the worst thing created. "It's so
formal and permanent... and what if my guy is ugly what then?"
"Well then he'll probably have hot generals that we'll be with." The smart remark had come from the princess
and goddess of Jupiter. She laughed as she caught a grape in her mouth that Serenity had attempted to throw at
her, she winked in thanks. "Well it's true..." Mina nodded and began to play with Serenity's hair, when they had
been younger people used to get them confused since they both had golden blonde hair. "Yeah Sere, your mom
has great taste. Remember what your father looked like? Not to sound gross but your dad was a handsome man."
Serena let out a shrill scream in shock causing the girls to wince. "Minako! That is so disgusting to think of my
father that way! Goddess rest his soul." The girls all nodded in solemn silence in rememberance of King Lune he
had been a great man and a surrogate father to all of them.
"Well this is no time to get all depressed, the prince and general should be here any minute and we should look
presentable." Of course the mature comment came from the highly intelligent fourteen year old Amy of Mercury,
she always had to be the one to keep the girls in line. She slipped off the bed her shoulder length blue hair
shimmering back and forth as her heels hit the floor. "I suggest we all go to the gardens since that would be the
most appropriate place to train." The other four groaned and followed her as she walked out of the bedroom. As
they entered the gardens they heard deep laughs and chuckles coming from a corner where the roses were. As the
girls walked over they saw the four generals and a raven haired man with their back to them. Lita nudged
Serenity and grinned pointing to the raven haired guy. "Let's see what we get when we turn him around."
The girls cleared their throats and the four generals stood tall all of them 2 years older than the princesses they
stood tall in their armor and bowed to the girls getting giggles from the girls. Amy rolled her eyes of course and
the princesses went and introduced themselves to the generals noticing that their corresponding planet symbols
were engraved into their chest armor over the heart. Serenity noticed that the prince of Earth had not turned
around to face her and hadn't since he had been there. Huffing some at the rudeness of him she tapped him on
the shoulder somewhat harshly her voice sweet but icy. "So the Prince of Earth doesn't have the common
decency to greet his partner? How very kind of you Prince... En...dy...mi...on.." She had dragged his name out
purposely just to annoy him and notice him stiffen at it, he turned around and Serenity had to blink a few times
so she wouldn't stare.
Prince Endymion looked down at the 5' silver haired princess who's grey eyes already held a playful manner in
them. His deep midnight blue eyes shimmered in interest at the girl but hated how she had uttered his name. He
took her hand and kissed it nibbling on her knuckle causing her to wrench it back in shock a blush on her face
"My my Princess Serenity I had been told you were beautiful, but that seems to be such a pitiful word to describe
you. And as you so lovely said my name I preferred to be called Darien." Serenity was trying to push down her
blush and racing heart at the gorgeous Terran that stood before her. She nodded dumbly for a moment before
shaking out of it. "Very well Darien, I would like to be called Serena then if it is okay with you."
Darien laughed and began to walk past her and flicked her hair softly and spoke over his shoulder. "No worries
Meatball Head this will be a very interesting four years of training." Serena gasped in shock at the nickname,
she felt so insulted and spun around screeching in frustration. "You jerk! I will never agree to be your wife, I'll
pray the goddesses to help me find someone else before I'd marry you!" He stopped a few feet away and spun
around realizing that both of their companions were now in pairs with their person and watching them. "No
worries my beloved Meatball Head, you will be my wife and you will love me just as much as I have FALLEN in
love with you." It had been evident the comment had been sarcasm but it still made her flush none the less.
Serena stomped her foot and walked deeper into the gardens mumbling about a "stupid, sexy, terran" for a short
while.
Moon Kingdom Past Ends-----------------------------
Serena laughed as did Darien as they reached the Kingdom remember their first meeting all those four years ago
and how they had grown. She tiptoed and kissed him softly seeing their friends sitting and eating happily, love in
their eyes since they were all to be married in a month. She sighed happily and looked up at him her grey eyes
sparkling with such love for him it took his breath away to look at her. "Darien once we are married do you think
we could have children?" A blush rushed to her face at the look of shock he had given her. "Well I always
wanted to be a mother...and I thought having a child would be wonder-" She was cut off by lips meeting hers in a
loving kiss, her whole body melted against his as she knew what his answer was.
"Serena I would have as many children as you would like...as long as your with me." Serena screamed in delight
recieving glances from all of their friends as he spun her around. She grasped Darien's hand and ran over to all
of them and began to tell them what their plans were.
Before Darien could see any more memories he realized they were back in the sacred room her looked at his four friends a
look of confusion on his face. "What are the rest of the memories?" The generals all looked to the floor with sadness masking
their faces.
"That was the last day we all had together." It was Zoisite talking and he was on the verge of tears. "We were all killed later
that evening when Beryl came and all hell broke loose. Queen Serenity had to send us into the future so we could find each
other. Which is why we keep being reborn until we reach happiness." Darien nodded solemnly imagining what his friends had
been through trying to get with their beloves all this time. He sighed and ran a hand through his hair and began to think.
"Alright well when they come back we will deal with this... for now lets just wait and hope for the best for our loves." The
men nodded and sat on the floor and began to meditate and concentrate on their loves.
Raye, Lita, Mina and Amy were all breathing heavy cuts, slashes and bruises along their body. Serena stood their with a few
minor scratches on her her body healing much faster than the girls. The girls were beginning to feel exhausted from all the dark
magick in the room plus they were fighting magickally and physically for a few hours now. "Serena... it's us your friends and
sisters... stop fighting us and remember who we are." Serena laughed and spit some blood on the floor wiping it off her lip. "I
know who you four are... horrible goddesses who tried to take my away from my love... I won't forgive you... and now I
have the pleasure of killing you." Serena closed her eyes and began to say an incantation and the girls began to panic realizing
this was a vanquishing spell for witches and warlocks. Only they had learned how to cast this after centuries of training. No
one could survive this, not even them, the began to back up as Serena headed towards them. She stopped as she felt a hand
on her shoulder and turned her head.
"Serena, give them a few moments to think and then kill them." Seiya kissed her neck softly and watched as the silver inferno
began to grow in her hands as she continued the incantation. Serena turned to them grinning and looked at all of them and the
girls looked at her in shock at what she was going to do. "Sere how can you do..." Raye was cut off as Serena grabbed her
by the throat and lifted her up into the air. "Silly Raye... I can kill you because I wish... I know you four could not because
your compassion weakens you." She threw her and Raye hit the wall and fell. "But now I will end it all and Seiya and I will
have this child and obliterate all that try and stop us."
"There's got to be a way to get through to her... some way... but we've tried everything..." Amy's mind was spinning of
so many spells and none of them would work, after centuries the five of them were too strong for such simple spells even
some of the most complex wouldn't work. Serena began to continue the incantation again and the inferno grew larger, the
girls closed their eyes and waited for their lives to end knowing they could do nothing. They couldn't kill her they didn't have
the heart so she might as well kill them.
They felt the bright inferno consume the whole room as the girls stood there and then opened their eyes and realized they
were still there. They turned their heads to Serena and noticed she was standing under a pile of black ashes, a smile on her
face. They ran over to her and realized the ashes was where Seiya had been standing watching they all looked at the ashes
and then back to Serena and screamed and hugged her. She laughed and hugged them all closing her eyes sighing happily.
"Sorry guys I had to fake it or I would have never been able to catch him off guard." The girls just hugged her tight and they
dissappeared and appeared back into the holy room.
The girls seperated and stood in front of the five men standing there, coincidentally all standing across from their lovers. In all
synchronized movements the men all grasped their women and kissed them passionately. The four goddesses were surprised
by these forward men but naturally melted into their arms and delved into the passion. As they stayed connected the
memories of them began to return to them when they released the girls were all hugging them tightly tears falling gently down
their faces. Serena had regained all her memory as well and looked back to Darien and kissed him softly. She leaned up to
his ear nibbling on it gently before whispering. "Do I have some surprising news for you..."
